They are off the hook, it doesn’t apply to them. 

@Joseph BraunRecommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.So, when investing in areas they don’t really know, investors should research the different property Class submarkets.

If they push back and insist it's a misunderstanding, give them a list of your problems and what they would have to do to prove the information is reliable, then give them one opportunity to apply with additional information. 

I can't seem to find a podcast from the last couple weeks and it has great information I need to apply! 

If you can apply this it is likely because you have gotten to know where you live over time.

You say nobody has complained, but you also don't have anyone else applying to rent, so maybe they just didn't mention it?

I am now crunching this data for a general percentage (for my area) to apply to my ARVs so that when I buy in early summer my projections can withstand the more lagging market of the fourth quarter. 

It takes time but that's how you learn the numbers and apply it to your market.  

There are lots of parts of the country where building codes are not applied at all.
